in a way that i don't expect everyone to understand it is beautiful.

#liminality

The first one is Epistemic Ozempic by the inimitable Jo Bervoets. His texts always have a way of being about 20 things at once without losing focus. This one is about incels and the concept of 'feeling epistemically excluded' (without necessarily being so), and makes a very strong case that emancipation is not a zero-sum game. It also covers precariousness, entropy, and Ozempic, somehow.

Favourite quote: "It is the stuff of my optimism to believe counter narratives have the best survival odds. There would have been no life at all if the selfish zero sum gamete narrative were true."
